The annual prizes for a local area history study by Year 9 students at Faith College in 2013 were presented at the Years 8,9 and 10 Presentation Night recently. Judges Adelaide Abbott and Jill Stevens commented that it was particularly hard to pick the winners this year because of the very high standard of entries. Friends President Bill Biscoe presented the prizes to: (from left to right above): Claudia Jenkins (equal second, essay “Ivanhoe”); Daniel Grosser (first, essay “Narcoota Poll Merino Stud”); Julia Edwards (first, model “St Petri, Nuriootpa”); Bill Biscoe; Madeline Ellis (third, model “Ellis Ironmonger”); James Madden (equal second, essay “Tanunda Lutheran School”); Harrison Starick (second, model “Manning House”).
